McMenamins Mill Creek

Super solid happy hour everyday from 3pm-6pm, you can't beat it. Always a solid choice when coming to McMenamins, especially when craving a burger and beer. My go to picks are the Cajun tots, a delicious IPA, and a cheeseburger. They're happy hour menu has several selections to chose from and has something for everyone to enjoy. Our server was awesome and on top of it. This place can get busy and looks like they have several regulars, so great to see. I love McMenamins and this place looks like it's going strong.

Met a friend here for a weekday dinner, but mostly to visit and catch up.I am eating a pretty restrictive diet so I ordered simply. I ordered tonic water with lime which may have been my mistake, it came sweetened which I didn't expect. I asked for a non-sweetened carbonated water and was told I want soda water. Okay. The waiter was helpful and got me set-up quickly. I ordered a dinner salad with chicken (the Aztec salad) and it arrived as ordered (no tortilla strips by request). It was on the small side, a medium bowl with mostly mixed greens, a few cherry tomatoes, some black beans, and a spicy chipotle dressing. The chicken was really well prepared and seasoned but was probably just a 4 oz serving. All in all it tasted great and was just on the small side.This seems like a classic neighborhood place, families with kids, couples and other groups came in and seemed to enjoy the comforting food that was on the menu. There is a nice bar with patrons around during our visit. The server was friendly but not overly chatty, a good thing. He was very good about leaving us after we had finished and paid for our meal. I will note that McMenamins was not too busy on Tuesday, a good thing for visitors. I like that there is mostly booth seating. Looks like they have a great patio for warmer weather dining!

I didn't plan on eating here tonight but I'm glad that I did. Coming here is bittersweet because my late husband and I spent countless Saturday (and sometimes Friday and Sunday) nights here, enjoying late night happy hour. Tonight I was craving a corn dog so I was really happy that Scooby Snacks are available! SO much better than Sonic, and honestly about the same drive. I was a little disappointed that they no longer have Mac and Cheese on the menu, but maybe they'll bring it back with a little persuasion. The service tonight was a little slow, but the great food made up for it. I'm surprised how expensive this place has gotten. A room beer, basket of Cajun Tots and an order of Scooby Snacks were $32 with tip. The good news is that I have a ton of leftover food, so I'll get at least two more meals out of it. That being said, I love this place and plan to come here more often; especially at night. It's quiet and the music is great. I love relaxing in a booth reading or even coloring. I'm very impressed with the improvements to the outside of this location (it's at the end of a strip mall), because it's light and bright so I felt safe being here alone. Looking forward to making this a regular hangout again. My husband will be there in spirit.

As a McMenamins Passport holder, I'll go to a McMenamins for a second time because I can usually count on the food and ambiance. That said, when I stopped by for my third time at the Mill Creek location, I wasn't impressed.I ordered the cheeseburger which came off of the grill a bit charred, to a level I would usually send back. And the service, left something to be desired. I might as well have ordered my food from a food truck or a grocery store for the level of service I received.

Went in for dinner tonight at 6:15. First time at this location, but I've been to a lot of McMenamins over the years. The Barman was really wound up. Within a couple of seconds he was freaking out because my (obviously) disabled son was headed towards the bar area rather than the restaurant area. He acted like he was going to explode. We are talking three feet in the wrong direction. NO need for the drama. He's in the wrong business. A terrible first impression. We found a table (it's self serve here) and brought menus with us. A server came over and asked us for our beverage order. After quite a while she came back. The soda was both warm and almost flat. She took our order. I ended up paying 20.00 for a salad (southwest - no protein) in a soup bowl. Chicken strips and tots that I think they charged 27.00 for!! And a bowl of chicken soup. And the one kids soda. These are stadium prices! The place was nearly empty, but had lots of floor staff. Almost one server per table. Our food took a very long time to come out. The chicken strips looked and tasted like they came out of a freezer bag - store brand- from Fred Meyer. They were flat, not plump or juicy. The breading was like sand mixed with sawdust. The tots were good. They are tots! The soup was good. The salad was not something I would order again - and an embarrassing value. It was definitely not a dinner sized salad - but it was priced as if it were. This meal for two was 58.00 before gratuity. A remarkably terrible value. A rip off in fact. Highway robbery, even. To say we won't ever be back goes without saying. Gross. Do better.

This is a pretty good place but by McMenamins standards it's pretty basic. Food is good, drinks are good, setting is a strip mall facing a grocery store. It's a solid place but I would probably drive a bit farther to Anderson School.

I like McMenamins! It's my go-to bar in Mill Creek if I'm in the area. The staff is always great, friendly and they seem to enjoy their jobs for the most part. I really have no complaints about the food or the drinks.This is a great stress-free spot to enjoy a nice drink and unwind a bit. Sometimes the place could be a little cleaner, but I have no real complaints about McMenamins.

The food was great and our server was very friendly and funny. You could tell she loves her job. I would go back for sure.

Warning: Fast food portion for overpriced restaurant $$$ ... should've gone to Ivars at the mall Cocktail was not bad ... it's the second star

This is usually my go to place for a casual lunch or dinner. Great for families. Sunny days the patio is nice. Service is a little slow but the food is always reliable and the staff is always the best. They've upped the menu to add a few more vegan options which is a huge win for me. Be patient as it's light staffing. My favorite is the vegan Mystic 18 burger and the bean and seed Gyros. Looking to try the higher bowls next.
